Yes I am a resident of Montgomery AL I am about to go in front of a judge and plead guilty to my second dui offense in the last 3 1/2 years.
Question Details:
I know that there could be sentenced to 5 days , $1000 fine, suspended license and **** classes. My trial date is 10/29/2009. When the judge accepts my guilty plea, will I immediately begin serving my jail sentence or can I serve it on a later date or on weekends?
DUI / DWI Law Answers
I am a lawyer in CT and practice in this area of the law. After you plead guilty there will likely be a sentencing date assigned. You can try to get this extended as far out as you can; however, the court is not likely going to give you too much time. I suggest that you try to get a date as far out as you can or dates that are convenient and let the judge know the dates sothat you can do your time and move on with your life. You can also confirm this procedure by calling the clerk or state's attorney's office.
